The disentanglement of state and religion can serve different purposes. On the one hand, it can lead to privatization of religion or its relegation to politically predefined spheres in society. On the other hand, disentanglement can also be in the service of providing an open space for the unfolding of religious diversity without fear and without discrimination. The article pleas for a human rights-based understanding of secularism as a necessary implication of freedom of religion or belief.
